Light Lemon Cakes

Ingredients

Butter 200g

Sugar 150g

Vanilla sugar 1 packet

Salt

Eggs 3

Lemons 2

Flour 250g

Baking powder 2 tsp

Icing sugar 150g

Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Beat the butter until stiff, gradually adding granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, and eggs. Wash and dry one lemon, grate the zest, and squeeze out the juice. Add the juice and zest to the sugar-cream mixture. Mix the flour with the baking powder, sift it over the butter mixture, and mix thoroughly.

Grease a baking sheet with butter, fill it with the batter, smooth it out, and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. Remove the pie from the oven. Squeeze the second lemon and mix it with powdered sugar. While the pie is still warm, spread the glaze over it. Cool completely, cut into slices, and serve.

Enjoy!
